Suppression of EIF4G2 by miR-379 potentiates the cisplatin chemosensitivity in nonsmall cell lung cancer cells.

Although microRNAs and EIF4G2 are both known to play pivotal roles in cancer progression, it remains unknown whether these pathways regulate chemosensitivity in a coordinated manner. Here, we show that miR-379 expression is significantly downregulated in chemoresistant nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues and cells. Manipulation of miR-379 levels could alter the in vitro and in vivo cisplatin (CDDP) resistance in lung cancer (LCa) cells.

[Study and Evaluation on Preparation of Monolithic Osmotic Pump Tablet of Resveratrol].

Objective: To prepare monolithic osmotic pump tablet of resveratrol.

Methods: Inclusion technology was adopted to enhance its solubility. The optimal formulation of resveratrol inclusion complex osmotic pump tablets was selected by the single-factor method and orthogonal design.

[Comparison of bioavailability of two kinds of solid dispersion from 10-hydroxycamptothecin in SD rats in vivo].

To improve the bioavailability of 10-hydroxycamptothecin, 10-hydroxycamptothecin solid dispersion(HCPT-SD) and 10-hydroxycamptothecin-phospholipid complex-solid dispersion(HCPT-PC-SD) were prepared, and their solubility and dissolution rate were evaluated in this study. SD rates were administered intragastrically with HCPT-SD or HCPT-PC-SD respectively, then their blood samples were collected at different time intervals. The concentration of HCPT in blood was detected by HPLC method with camptothecin as internal standard, and then its pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and obtained.

[Preparation and Synchronized Release Behavior on Porosity Osmotic Pump Tablets of Total Glucosides of Paeony].

Objective: To prepare porosity osmotic pump tablets of total glucosides of paeony( TGP),and to study the behavior on synchronous release of its main components.

Methods: Taking the accumulative release of TGP as indexes, through single-factor test and orthogonal design to investigate the optimal formulation porosity osmotic pump tablets of TGP. The main components, paeoniflorin, albiflorin and benzoylpaeoniflorin were employed to study synchronous release of the optimal formulation.
